“The Redbirds had a very strong year across the board,” Athletics Director Larry Lyons said. “All the credit goes to the coaches and student-athletes who competed at a high level throughout the year.”
Lyons also thanked staff working in strength and conditioning, athletic training, nutrition, equipment, compliance, and academic support.
“It is important to mention that we also broke our GPA record by posting a 3.31 in the spring. I am thankful for our committed student-athletes and staff, as we got it done in the classroom and competitive venues,” Lyons said.
